Working in Borehamwood
We work right across Borehamwood — WD6 — and in neighbouring Barnet and Bushey.
In Borehamwood, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If your Borehamwood bathroom has pipes running along the walls, a fitted run can box them in neatly while adding storage. Rented homes in Borehamwood are well served by slab doors and sealed worktops, which stand up to a change of tenants.
Supplies across most of Hertfordshire are very hard. Taps, plug wastes and toilet pans scale up quickly, so chrome copes better than matt black, and a removable aerator is worth having. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A concealed cistern or cistern frame, with an isolation valve you can reach through the flush plate or a panel
- A worktop cut to length, with basin and tap cut-outs and sealed edges
- Measuring every wall for length, height and how far it is out of square
- Fillers and end panels scribed to the walls, and the worktop sealed with silicone
Decisions to make first
Lighting in the run
Plinth lights and an illuminated mirror cabinet must be planned at first fix, because the cables run inside the furniture and need RCD protection.
Carcass board
Moisture-resistant board with sealed edges is the minimum. Some ranges use a PVC-based or similar carcass that copes better with splashes and leaks.
Rules that apply in England
In England, wiring a lit mirror or plinth lights means altering a circuit in a room with a bath or shower, which is notifiable under Part P. The Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 cover the new WC and basin taps.
